Morning all…

It’s nice to have enough time to be able to actually check in this morning.
(that may not last long, but for right now… I’ll take it).


Hope the fire on the NJ boardwalk is under control. Bad timing to be sure.

Thanks for the insight on the tour and hopefully we will get the dessert seating and will let yas know. We did the dessert reserved seating for Fantasmic at DL as there is only like 100 seats for that.

You were asking about the Desert party a bit ago… we’ve done that one.
We liked it but wouldn’t do it every time. The selection of munchies is good and there is a good mix of beverages available. The location also means that it’s fairly calm and certainly not terribly crowded (a bonus if you happen to be traveling in the high summer when the park is slammed). The down side is that while you have an excellent unobstructed (and not so crowded) view of “Wishes”, it is off-center from the castle so the visual is not quite as effective as it is when you’re out in front of the castle. It’s still a great fireworks show though and Tinkerbelle’s flight even come directly toward you (which it interesting). Of course the other downside is that it’s a bit pricy.


You guys are all so funny this mornig :lmao:

Just another service we offer.
Seriously, I hope y’all enjoy the trip.

With my son now out of high school, we’ll be missing the excursion that our local school is taking in the spring (which is going to Hawaii :headache: ). But on the up side, the university he’s now attending has been invited to perform in the 2014 Macy’s Parade (which will make him one of only two folks there that have already done that back in high school :headache: )


Hey guys! What's up?

Certainly not my income…
 
Hey guys! What's up?

A lot of rain clouds.

:rotfl2::rotfl2::lmao::lmao: I was going to say lot's of clouds, rain and some lightning, but you beat me to it. These storms must be HUGE:eek:. It seems everyone is getting some rain.

For a serious answer. Just trying to get through Friday so the weekend can start. Got tickets to the Red Sox/Yankees for tomorrow and then hoop and field hockey games for the kids on Sunday. The Patriots were nice enough to play last night so no conflict with the home team. Of course "play" is a relative from what I saw from both teams yesterday. Good thing the AFC East is a bad bunch of teams. This could have been the year it all caught up to them if the other 3 teams weren't so bad.

That's my DD's standard answer: The stars, the sun, Dad. :rotfl2: :confused3

You might have seen on the news by now, that the Seaside Boardwalk is burning, almost 6blocks and 1 pier reduced to ash, less then a year ago it was destroyed by Sandy but with much hard work was rebuilt, This is less then 10miles away from me, I know they will rebuild for next year, I pray that we have no big storms this year, my surrounding area has been through enough, Prayers going out to all those affected & Safe and Speedy return home to the hundreds fighting the fire:goodvibes

This was horrendous. The Jersey Shore has suffered so much and this devastation is awful. My wife and kids just got back from a few days down there... Prayers obviously

Certainly not my income…

Universal problem with paying for Disney Trips...

And cable made it easy to decide between Pats game and the series finalle of Burn Notice by running the game on a channel we don't get! :headache:

At least the Series Finalle was good!
 

Do you have to pay for it or is the school picking this up? Either way, :thumbsup2

If I drive the truck with equipment down they will pay for truck and fuel. I am on the hook for everything else. But hey I save on travel expense !! The band will be staying offsite but not this guy!:thumbsup2
 
Sooo... no Canada trip?

no Don this trip is in addition to the nov trip. The Canada/Disney debate is still so much alive. However it is looking a lot like Canada and this trip in April tilts it to Canada even more.

Aha.... she has playing the one-eyed Queen on ya... :lmao:
 
FRIDAY
Seems like I never get caught up any more
Happy late birthdays, prayers for those in NJ, hope everyone is safe in those storms.
Looks like I may actually make progress on the trip report this weekend. Can't do it from my phone so I have to email all my pics to my desktop and upload them from there. Major pain.
Photopass CD should be here in a couple days, some great pics there.

We have started planning our next trip for summer 2015. Early stages say onsite and flying down.


Nah. They would recognize that

I didn't think they took blind applications anymore. I thought you had to use the website that posted specific jobs and apply against one of those.

I just applied for everything they had posted

hDEC49EE3

Yes I do.

OK guys. Thinking about buying the Nikon 1 V2 camera. Anyone have any experience with the camera or reviews you would like to share? The main reason is my SLR is too big and heavy to carry around everywhere. The 1 is pretty light and compact.
We took our new Samsung Galaxy camera. It is an SLR that is built off of their phone platform but with a full size camera lens built into the back
Great quality and more options for settings than we could use in our trip. Weighs less than a pound and the battery lasted all day for us.
 
Don and I were texting last night too!

Just need Fed to stop by and your trip down memory lane will be complete...


Wow....

Yeah, those were the days....running up post counts....picking on Canadians....posting inappropriate pictures in a night of drunken debauchery...

Well, all but that last one. :rotfl2:

Does collapsing into bed at 10pm after a rough night of zero drinks count as drunken debauchery?
